my ipod is stuck in recovery mode i try to restore it but when it finishes nothing happens

Maybe:
Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .
Next try placing in DFU mode and then restoring.

Then try restoring on another computer.

  • Ipod touch stuck in recovery mode and will not restore. error code 3194

    ipod touch stuck in recovery mode, will not restore and comes up with error code 3194, itunes is up to date, please help

    Hi @rchangel - Thanks for the ideas...
    Yes - it won't let you install the 32 bit version on a 64 bit machine.
    I've had a cursory look at the SP1 release notes, and couldn't spot anything vital - what critical stuff do you know of in SP1?
    I don't want to have to go through all the pain of setting up VM's, reinstalling iTunes, getting all my album art back in etc. (though I could, as I do have Win7 pro). I've also heard that running iTunes in Windows 7 compatibility mode might help. Can anyone confirm whether that actually works?
    I think it's in Apple's gift to fix this issue, given that they say that they support Windows 7. So far I've had no feedback from a mail I sent to Apple, and the number of users reporting this problem keeps going up and up.
    I want Apple to recognise that there is a problem, and then I want them to fix it.

  • HT1212 I have followed the instructions to place the device in recovery mode to try and restore it, but Itunes is telling me that it has detected that the ipad needs the passcode and so it just keeps saying ipad is disabled on the screen of the ipad?

    My Ipad just keeps showing ipad is disabled even after I have followed the apple instructions for an ipad that has not been synced with itunes.
    Please help.

    You can try resetting your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
    Try again to see if the problem persists.

  • My iPod touch is stuck in recovery mode and won't restore?

    Okay my Ipod Touch is stuck in recovery mode and will not restore because "the ipod software update server cannot be contacted". I have tried to restart my computer, restart my ipod, tried different computers, and re-intalled AND updated my itunes and it still will not restore. It is stuck on the picture of the usb cable pointing to itunes and won't do anything else. I'm trying to restore it because my memory was full and I wanted to clean it out and now the ipod is useless, please help me restore it!

    Update Server
    Try:
    - Powering off and then back on your router.
    - iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    - Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
    Public DNS — Google Developers
    OpenDNS IP Addresses
    - For one user uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes resolved the problem
    - Try on another computer/network
    - Wait if it is an Apple problem

  • Ipod stuck in recovery mode and won't restore. says it can't connect to the network.

    My son tried to jailbreak his ipod touch like an idiot and of course it did not work. Now his ipod is stuck in recovery mode and I can't get it to restore. I get a message that says:the ipod software update server could not be contacted. Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active, or try again later. I have internet access and everything is working but itunes can't connect to it. Why? I have been having issues with itunes for a couple weeks now. I can't connect to the store and redeem itunes cards either.

    Make sure the setting for your security software allow iTunes to contact Apple servers:
    iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting security software issues
    As for the iPod, since he tried to modify the software, the only thing that could help would be DFU mode , we can't help much more, problems with jailbroken devices can't be discussed in theses forums, due to the Terms of Use.
    Your son has to ask those people for help, which encouraged him to jailbreak his device.

    Placing your device into recovery (DFU-Device Firmware Upgrade) mode:
    Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
       1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the
           other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
       2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds
           until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
                  * If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the
                    Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off,
                    release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
      3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the
           device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the battery charge warning,
           let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some
           charge, and then start with step 2 again.
      4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
           When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
      5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
      6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
    If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
    Additional Information:
    If you have a problem getting into recovery mode then try: RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode.
    Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.

    - Try on another computer
    - Try another cable           
    - Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers.

  • TS1441 ipod touch stuck in recovery mode

    attempted to upgrade to OS8 and my ipod touch is stuck in recovery mode

    The best way to get out of this situation is to use a well-known tool called TinyUmbrella.
    First of all download TinyUmbrella  http://thefirmwareumbrella.blogspot.in/
    Now, making sure your device is connected to your computer, launch TinyUmbrella
    It will automatically detect that your iPod is stuck in recovery mode
    Select the Exit Recovery button and it should throw your iPod touch out of recovery.
    Alternatively, you can right-click on your iPod name from a list at the side
    of TinyUmbrella and select Kick out of recovery.
